Please help me!! do you think young people can learn things from elderly members of their family? why/why not?

Yes, they can learn many things from the elder members of the family.

For example, they can learn manners and morals.

d. i assume the underlined word is "role." reformat if it isn't.

explanation:

role is closest to part because when replacing words, "playing a vital decision," "playing a vital activity," and "playing a vital dollar" don't make logical sense. the only meaningful choice is "playing a vital part."

this fits one of merriam-webster's definitions of role: "a function or part performed especially in a particular operation or process."
